These toys use the same stampings as other '59s described previously, however the grille is a bare stamping instead of being detailed with lithography. Deluxe V appears on the rear fenders of 59-I1-06-01. It’s pulling a blue trailer with a silver and red midget racer decorated with Hero and number 10. 59-I1-06-02 has a trailer hitch and probably pulled a racer like other the examples of this toy that we have cataloged.
